Aberdeen-based Hall Morrice is marking its 50th anniversary with record turnover, continued investment in people and plans to expand the advice it provides to businesses across North--east Scotland.
The independent accountancy and advisory firm recorded turnover of £6.2million in the year to March 2026, with growth across all revenue lines.
Eight new staff, including seven trainees, have joined its existing team of more than 80 people. Their arrival comes as Hall Morrice and the Institute of Chartered Accountants of Scotland (ICAS), mark the 50th year of their training relationship.
Ensuring that it remains at the forefront of technology developments, Hall Morrice is also gearing up for the September launch of a dedicated AI and digital transformation service that will help clients identify practical ways to use AI, data and automation to improve their processes, financial information and decision-making.
The firm’s landmark year has also been marked by its inclusion on the shortlist in the Mid-Tier Firm of the Year, Employer of the Year (Medium) and Finance Digital Transformation Award categories of the 2026 Accounting Excellence Awards.

Commenting on the milestone anniversary, Managing Partner Robert Bain said: “Reaching 50 years matters, but longevity on its own is not the story.
“Paper files, handwritten ledgers and manual calculations have given way to cloud systems, live data, automation and AI. However, our main drivers remain the same: to give people better information, reduce routine processing and create more time for direct advice and strong client relationships.
“Hall Morrice has remained independent because we have kept changing with our clients and the North-East economy, and our core strengths are unchanged: personal service, trusted relationships and a close understanding of the businesses and communities we serve.
“Ongoing investment will help develop the next generation of advisers, and launching our AI and digital transformation service and strengthening our corporate finance capability will guide the next phase of Hall Morrice, allowing us to look to the future with confidence and optimism.”
He added: “As technology takes on more routine work, our people can spend more time with clients, providing advice and supporting growth. We will say more about the expansion of our corporate finance offering in the coming weeks.”
Founded in 1976, Hall Morrice is one of Scotland’s fastest-growing independent accountancy firms and has a reputation for a client-first approach in serving a range of sectors including energy, construction, retail, and professional services.
